Addicted to Imogen
Hey, hey! Meggen will be happy to see that I'm updating my journal, since she hasn't had anything to distract her at work! Just trying to keep the fans happy!
And speaking of happy...I am HAPPY to report that I officially broke down and am now PAYING for the internet. I know! It's quite the concept, what can I say? I realized that being disconnected from the real world of hotmail, myspace, and AIM wasn't all it was cracked up to be. I'm so gung-ho about this internet thing, I even invested in a wireless modem. I am really joining the electronic world! Funny thing...I got the internet, but then, since I couldn't figure out how to hook it up(and I'm a Comp Sci major?!?!?!) because of that damn splitter thing, I had to wait two days until Patrick could come over and figure out in literally 5 minutes! I felt like a non-technical schmuck! That's ok...all is made better by internet access! So now that I officially and 100% connected, I can actually update this thing more than once every 3 months. And I'm not just saying that! I really mean it this time!
So, the title of this journal...addicted to Imogen. Meggen just got the new Imogen Heap cd, "Speak for Yourself". Great CD!!! I highly, highly suggest it. If you like Frou Frou ("Let Go" was their big song from the Garden State Soundtrack) you'll love Imogen, since she is the singer for Frou Frou. It's kind of electronic pop/rock, but it's very musically based. Lots of synethizers and distortion, but the combination of electronic and her distinctive voice and the words just make it good shit. I'm really addicted to the song Hide and Seek, which has no instrumentation whatsoever. Just all different modulations and voice-overs of her voice. LOVE IT!
So things have been good. Christmas went by in a flash. It was nice to be home, be a part of the traditions again. My parents were thrilled of course! I had all of last week off, which was even nicer. It actually wasn't too much of a shocker to come back to work on Tuesday. Tomorrow's Thursdays!! YIPEE!
Life is good, just the occasional ups and downs, but those are mostly the doing's of Elan's overthinking brain! Sometimes I hate that thing...also the fact of being a female seems to fuck with me. Don't get me wrong, I love being female (no sex change operation in the future here), I just wish I wasn't so damn emotional and future thinking. Sometimes I just want to live in the now. Enjoy the now, but my brain doesn't want to seem to focus on that! Oh well, you looking at my gut? Well I'm working on it!!
